>she tested it she upped it to 0.1 from .075. I started losing my hair, my scalp got really dandruffy and changed texture no matter how often either symptom to kick in. My thyroid has always been borderline so I've always been a little concerned with taking it when it's not necessary.

you're still taking it are you? ... so does that mean it had some benefit for you ?


> I do encourage you to get your TSH levels checked though. It doesn't hurt and if you're borderline you could start with a low dose.

it's strange because i actually suffer from all of the symptoms of hypothyroidism

unusually dry skin
feeling cold all the time
constipation
wounds take forever to heal
dry hair

... but my thyroid level is normal high -
TSH = 1.42

.... strangely, most of my symptoms are in remission -- a lot are worse in the winter ... but i am wondering if the parnate might be rising my thyroid?
